ABOUT VOYCE

Vision and Opportunities for Youth & Community Empowerment

We have a lot of information today but packaging that to inspire behaviour change requires a radical and a fresh change in health promotion and social change messaging.

Art is a universal language that helps in effectively engaging with communities and improving lives. Art is a positive influence, an inspiring force. Art empowers the most vulnerable and allows for freedom of expression to thrive. We recognize the power of the arts as an engine for progress and social transformation.

We at VOYCE, combine the two worlds of public health and social messaging with arts. In everything we do and develop, there is arts and creativity, the language of change we aspire to make.

More specifically, through her work in the public health sector, she realized that we have a lot of knowledge today but packaging that to inspire people to change requires a radical and a fresh approach in health promotion and social change messaging.

She wants to create a new language for happier and healthier lives through the voice of VOYCE.

Currently, Anika and the team are supporting efforts during the times of COVID-19. They have directed, illustrated and animated videos on COVID-19 and mental health.
